Summary

Further conversations from this year’s summit.

COP28 was the largest climate talks to date, with global industry leaders, governments,

analysts, journalists and climate activists converging on Dubai for the summit.

The Energy Gang's schedule was packed, and host Ed Crooks was joined by many

interesting and influential people from the world of energy across 6 full days. In this episode, we bring you three new conversations that we couldn’t fit into the regular schedule.

Kevin Kariuki is the Vice President for power, energy, climate and green growth at the African Development Bank. Laetitia De Marez is the Senior Program Director of the Climate Finance Access Network run by the thinktank RMI. Together they discuss ways to increase

investment in cutting emissions and adapting to the impacts of climate change.

Also, Ed explores a technology for reducing emissions with Mark Davis, the Chief Executive

of Capterio, which works on solutions to stop gas being wasted by being burned off in flares.

Hello and welcome to the Energy Gang, a discussion show about the fast changing world of energy.

0:11.0

I'm Ed Crooks.

0:12.0

So what we have for you today is a special catch-up

0:15.1

episode with a little bit more from the COP 28 climate talks in Dubai. You may

0:19.1

well have heard the series of episodes that we produced while we're out there

0:21.8

at the talks earlier in the month,

0:23.3

and we interviewed many of the interesting and influential people from the world of energy

0:26.8

that were present in and around those talks, but unfortunately at the time we weren't able to use all those interviews. They did include

0:33.3

those some really interesting conversations so what we're going to do is

0:37.0

bring you three of them now. We're thinking of this as a kind of notebook

0:40.2

emptying exercise if you like just catching up on all the stray things we couldn't

0:44.9

quite fit into a regular show during the talks but we think are worth hearing.

0:51.2

So later on in the show you can hear my conversation with Kevin Kiryuki who's the

1:07.6

You can also hear me talk to Letitia de Moray, who's the Senior Program Director of the Climate Finance Access Network run by the

1:14.4

think tank RMI. And they're both going to be talking about ways to increase

1:17.7

investment in cutting emissions and adapting to the impacts of climate change.

1:21.2

The discussion on the phasing out of fossil fuels and the

1:24.9

phasing of renewable energy is really the battleground here at COP28. But before we hear from them,

we have an interview with a head of a company who works on technology for reducing emissions.

1:34.8

Mark Davis is the chief executive of Capterio, which works on solutions to stop gas being wasted
